Downtown Lighthouse

Last Saturday I was itching to get out and shoot some photos.  It had been a fairly stressful week, as weeks go, and, I felt a drive and some new scenery would be good for both of us. I thought of the little town of Suisun, which, although it is nearby, we hardly ever visit.  I looked online and noticed there was a lighthouse.  Lighthouse? In downtown Suisun? We drove over and and discovered the Suisun Harbor Lighthouse. Built in 2006, it is just 52 feet high- and does not guide ships.  It instead is a beacon leading people to the harbor area of the newly revitalized downtown.

I was drawn to the stripes.  This shot, converted to black and white, is my favorite.

  1. Great shot! Isn’t it wonderful living near water? I love it here but also living near the large lake our town is on in WI. We have a lighthouse in our town too!
